Hayward -- The body of a woman believed to have jumped off the San Mateo Bridge last week was found during the weekend at Hayward Regional Shoreline, authorities said yesterday.

Becky Cheung, 34, of Alameda apparently jumped from the span early Tuesday morning, according to the U.S. Coast Guard. She had left a suicide note, written in Chinese, in her car on a bridge turnout, authorities said.

A jogger found Cheung's body about 2:30 p.m. Saturday in the water just below the San Francisco Bay trail.
